Britain's New Aero Engine
Has Wonderful Possibilities..
A despatch from London says:—
The successful testing of a 1,000 -
horsepower aero engine, which is said
to be the most powerful known, has
opened. up claims by e: pests of the
possibility of a regrlar London -New
York aerial service, and a complete
passage within 24 hours, either direct
or by charging aircraft at the Azores
Islands.
It is being recalled by the experts
that Capt. John Alcock: in 1919 flew
from Newfoundland to Ireland in less
than 16 hours, using tevo 375 -horse-
power er engines. The new engine is
nailed the "Cub," It was ordered by
the RoyaI Air Force. It is understood
that the Titania, a flying -boat destroy-
er which is to be used in long-distance
patrols, will be equipped with two
"Cubs," and have a range of 1,500
miles. For war time the crew will
number ten, and for civilian use the
eraft can accommodate 50 passengers.
The Cub's 18 cylinders on a test
indicated 1,057 horsepower in 20 hours
of running. The engine weighs nearly
a ton, and -costs about x5,000.
